Spanish newbie (with a couple of CNC projects for photography)

for the tracking shots i would use a simple RC servo with a servo tester to drive it and add a step down gearbox of some description... should be easy to build and cost £30/£40 ish for the drive side of things... im sure youll work out a rail system or even a simple skater type dolly without to much trouble

you want the camera tracking during shots to maintain the motion blur that you would get if shooting 24/25 FPS (no need to stop the tracking during the open shutter... makes a build like this pretty simple)

if you can keep to the 180 degree shutter rule (very dense ND filter or two polerizers stacked... one cuircular and one standard) you will maintain the natural motion film motion blur
